Description
This video podcast course examines one of the most unusual occupational fraud cases in recent history - the embezzlement of nearly $17 million from Collin Street Bakery in Corsicana, Texas by corporate controller Sandy Jenkins and his wife, Kay. Through detailed analysis of this compelling case study spanning from 2004 to 2013, accounting professionals will explore the fraud risk triangle elements of incentive, opportunity, and rationalization that enabled Jenkins to systematically steal from a century-old fruitcake company to fund an extravagant lifestyle, including 38 vehicles, 223 private jet trips, and luxury shopping sprees. Students will learn to identify behavioral red flags, understand internal control weaknesses, including segregation of duties violations, and apply fraud prevention strategies to protect their organizations from similar occupational fraud schemes.
